What trick do you mean? I checked a couple of your recent posts and they were about turning background connections on/off. I don't understand why that would require repeating action, so I probably am not looking at the right thing.

Fastly thinking, the kind of repeating rules, that I think you're writing about, do not really fit well into the current model both from code nor usability view. But most of all I'd like to understand what's being tried to do here, because there might be other ways to achieve it.
